Ymir was stunned by his king's transformation. The Masked Alpha had never shown his bipedal werewolf form for thousands of years.
He was always in his more human form, and turned into his pure wolf form once, which was a disaster.
Ymir's lips thinned as he knew this wouldn't be an easy battle—to be precise, he thought it was impossible to beat the Masked Alpha.
However, he didn't necessarily have to win. His job was to hold him off as long as possible, so the Masked Alpha would have a difficult time searching for Lady Odette.
The Masked Alpha—now in his werewolf form looked up towards his apprentice and leaped high until he was at the same height as Ymir.
The latter was caught off guard, "So fast—"
Ymir didn't even have enough time to react with any spell or command to his pet snake before the Masked Alpha attacked him with his lethal claws.
"Hup!" Ymir quickly shrank as he shapeshifted into his snake form, barely dodging the claws before shifting back to his human form.
